We all want to take this chance to say, Welcome Back! to OMPS! Season 2 is finally here and we are excited to start it with John Powells score to Solo, A Star Wars Story. Before Brad, Kurt, and Alex get into that score they chat about the scores they have been listening to during the break. Kurt is still listening to Marco Beltramis A Quiet Place and Clint Mansells recent Hotel Artemis, while Alex has been listening to an older score (an awesome score!) for Stargate by David Arnold. Alex also brings up an excellent new score for Get Out by Michael Abels. Brad has been diving into some new scores for a while and brings up some interesting choices. One is an excellent score for an independent vampire exploitation movie called Live Evil by Austin Wintory (composer of video game soundtracks like Assassins Creed and Journey), along with new scores for In Darkness by Niall Byrne, and Tides of Fate by future-Captain Marvel composer, Pinar Toprak. All this before they start talking about one of the best scores of the year, Solo, A Star Wars Story. While the movie might not have done so well at the box office, it is undeniable that the score should sit as a champion accomplishment in the arena of film scores. Like John Debneys Cutthroat Island, John Powell has thrown every ounce of passion into this process and revealed that he has such a talent for creating memorable work, even when the film might not be successful. We are so glad you are back, and we are very excited to be back making episodes! We will be releasing episodes again every two weeks for Season 2, and promise a much bigger season than the last. Dont forget to leave a comment and let us know what you think. Thanks for dropping by and enjoy the show!
